Gibbs looks angry during press conference

I was doing that last week.

I like Randle El, I wanted Randle El, thought he'd look good in Burgundy, and I still do. Just understand that as a wide receiver, there's nothing special about him. What's special about him is that he CAN hold his own at WR, while doing so much more for this team.

If that's the case then don't overpay for his services. He's not worth the money they are paying him. Another bad move by the bad front office.

Why is he calling out Sanders? We got behind and a lot of the throws came on the last drive. Plus we couldn't run the ball. If Gibbs has a problem with the play calling then he should take it over himself. Yes he was mad and it's about time. He should be mad getting becasue there is no way TB should run the ball for almost 200 yards. But the main problem is we just don't have the horses and throwing away the picks has really hurt the depth. So Gibbs has no one to blame but himself.IMO, Al's playcalling has helped on the whole this year, but as far he was supposed to take us, I think he hid behind Brunell's supposed shortcomings and his line's inconsistent play in his playcalling earlier. My question is this: if Al thought that his plays would work if they could protect Brunell, why not call them? If the line misses a block, it's not Al's fault.

Now that he has the more mobile Campbell, there's less excuses to hide behind, but he should have done a better job with Brunell.

Look at his career stats. What did you expect from the guy, a 1000 yard season?

Well, his career stats as the #3 receiver behind Hines Ward and Plaxico Burress on a team committed to the run like the Steelers were bound to be diminished.

Maybe I was hoping the front office saw something in his athletic ability that I didn't ?

For the money that was thrown at him, I guess I expected better than one catch for 14 yards when our best wideout was injured. I mean James Thrash did better than that, for crying out loud.

But after we already brought in Lloyd, why not go spend the money on a lineman or something more useful?

Come to think of it, why DID we give a 3rd and 4th for Lloyd, if we were planning to outbid for Randle El.

You just answered your own question "#3 receiver". What would give you any faith in our front office?

I think that was our best move this offseason.

Relatively speaking, you are correct.

I sensed it. I think Williams may be really close to the Hot Seat....


I wonder if the D keeps playing like it is where Williams will end up. I also wonder if Williams isn't pissed because of Saunders coming in and challenging him to be the predecessor here, because it looks like our D is CONSTANTLY out of position. You couldn't do that shit on purpose.

You guys still want him to be our next Head Coach?

I wonder if Williams has some feeling of being an outsider now that Saunders is here as the other Associate-Head Coach. I mean Gibbs and Saunders have a bit of a history together having coached at the same time in college, and both being disciples of Coryell. And you ever notice how Gibbs always talks about smart Saunders is and how he's got such a great work ethic and he's putting in the hours to get the ship righted? I can't remember the last time he really spoke about GW in any such way.

I guess I'm the only one who didn't see a whole lot of anger with Gibbs.

Gibbs is hard to read he's definitely not a "crown their asses" kind of coach, but he certainly sounded more emotional than usual.

When I watch Carlos Rogers try to cover, I think that Williams deserves to be in the HoF for holding Tampa to 20 points today. He really is having to compensate for his secondary. When we get in Goalline where he can commit to stopping the run, they look like the last two years Redskins. Between the twenties where he has to worry about big plays, they get gashed. I think he is being forced to play conservative because Springs is the only guy that can cover and he's not 100 percent. Ditto Taylor. He looked like he had the flu or something today. I don't believe that the D-Line is the culprit. Otherwise they wouldn't be capable of goalline stands like they are. I think it's injuries, shoddy play at 2 or 3 critical positions, and scheme.

yeah this story mentions his frustrations
